，即现代人猎杀动物的原因是想通过征服危险的动物得到人们的赞赏，故答案为[B]。【点睛】短文中的…thathethinkspeoplewilladmirehiscourage是表语从句。28.Whatdowelearnaboutthebig-gamehunters?【解析】选[A]。短文中间引用大型动物猎杀者在他们的日记中写的话，理解了其中提到的Huntingisnotacruelandsenselesskilling…notifyoukilltofeedyourpeople即可选出答案[A]。【点睛】本题考查对notif“如果……就不……”的理解。29.Whatisthespeaker’sviewonthetiger-shootshehasseen?【解析】选[C]。选项均以Modernhunters开头表明，本题与现代猎人有关。短文最后将过去用长矛猎杀狮子的人和现在拿着现代枪械站在树上猎杀狮子的人进行比较，指出后者并非真有勇气与大型动物面对面地较量，故答案为[C]。【点睛】But转折处为常考点，其后的内容通常为句子真实含义和答案所在。PassageTwo【听前预测】预览三道题各选项，结合30题、31题各选项和32题中反复出现的exercise可推知，短文应与饮食和锻炼有关。Diet,diet,diet!Itgetstobeaconstantbattleformanyofustostayfitandhealthy.Butdietsdon’talwaysallowustolearnneweatinghabits,improveourself-image,ormakelifestylechanges.Developinggoodeatinghabitsandproperexerciseisapermanentissue.Andit’sthemaintopicofthisworkshop.Inordertokeepahealthydietandminimizetheriskofdisease,it’sessentialtoeatadietthatconsistsoflow-fatfoodsandtomaximizeenergywithcarbohydrates.Beef,nuts,oils,andmostdairyproductsarerichinfat,soyoushouldeatlessofthose;whilepastry,rice,potatoes,andbreadcontainalmostnofatandareahigh-energysourceofcomplexcarbohydrates.Youknowthatmanyfoodmanufacturesusesugartomakelow-fatorfat-freefoodstastegood,butdon’tworrytoomuchaboutthat.Youdon’tnecessarily“getfat”byeatingsugar,sincesugarisanindirectfat.Whenyouexercise,carbohydratesarethefirstcaloriestoburn.Ifyouwanttoburnofffat,it’sgoodtodosomesortofaerobicexercisesuchasbiking,swimming,running,orfastwalking.Butyouhavetokeepdoingthisexerciseforatleasttwentyminutesbecauseittakesaboutthatlong

【点睛】选项中的They指代的是问题中的children。[D]中的lackingself-confidence对应短文中的lackconfidence。35.WhatshouldparentsdoifachildisafraidofadogaccordingtoDr.AndyField?【解析】选[C]。选项均以原形动词开头表明，本题考查行为动作或观点建议。短文中提到，youcanapproachityourself,showthemthereisnothingtobeafraidof,strokeit…由此可知答案为[C]。【点睛】[C]中的howtoapproachit是对strokeit,andtalkaboutthedogbeingfriendly的概括。SectionC36.【解析】survey。空前AnAmerican和空后的修饰词ofover100,000people表明，本空应填一单数名词。填空题中若所填名词被后置定语“数字+名词”修饰，并且谓语为show，indicate或find等时，所填词往往为survey，study或poll等，这种情况下一般听清单词的第一个音素就很容易写出答案。37.【解析】patterns。空所在句中的that引导宾语从句，该宾语从句中含有despite引导的让步状语。despite（不管，尽管）是介词，后跟名词或名词短语。socialpatterns意为“社会模式，社会形态”，注意不要漏写表示复数的s。38.【解析】fit。短文首句是主旨句，也是本段的主题句，强调了married和healthier之间的联系。thereisalink…紧扣主题，并列连词and前后均为being结构，结构一致，因此本空应和married一样是形容词，并且在语义上和首句中的healthier照应。fit意为“健康的”。39.【解析】emotional。空前的逗号和or表示选择性的并列，即physical、mental和所填词三者在概念、词性上一致或并列。emotional意为“情感上的”。40.【解析】less。belikelytodosth.意为“有可能做某事”。所填词在形容词likely前面，故本空应填一副词。按照上段所说的marriedpeoplearehealthier，有physical,mentalor(39)______problems的人就很有可能是未婚的（unmarried）。因此，所填副词应该隐含否定之意。41.【解析】benefit。分析句子结构可知，所填词作people的谓语，故应为一原形动词，并可与from构成固定搭配，与support形成语义场共现。benefitfrom...意为“从……中受益”。42.【解析】improves。空前的this指代的是greatersupportfromfamilyandfriends，theirhealth为所填词的宾语，故本空应填一第三人称单数形式的动词。and 前面的内容是说结婚的人得益于此，and后面的内容反过来说this对theirhealth的作用，两者应是相互促进的，那么，所填词应和上半句中的benefit照应。improves意为“提高”。43.【解析】financially。aswellas表示其前后是并列关系，所填词在动名词短语affectingmanypeople之后，应为一副词，修饰affecting。根据命题规律，单词听写中的副词往往以-ly结尾，注意不要漏写。increasedepression和affectingmanypeople都是Divorceandlossofaclosefriendorrelative的消极后果。前者是指精神上的沮丧，后者是指在经济方面的负面影响。44.【答案】Theyarealsomorelikelytowearseatbeltsinacarandinstallsafetydevicesintheirhomes【MainPoints】Theyarealsomorelikelytowearseatbeltsinacarandfixsafetydevicesinhomes45.【答案】tendtoleadlessorganizedlivesandtheytakelesscareofwhatandwhentoeat【MainPoints】tendtolivemessilyandcarelessaboutwhatandwhentoeat46.【答案】thestressofadivorcecouldmeanyourhealthgetsworsethanwhenyouweresingle【MainPoints】thedivorcestresscouldimplyyourhealthgetsworsethanwhenyouweresingle'
